Hi, I try to apply the new Raise functionality to some new code. Does this look like a correct way to use it? Trying to instantiate HttpClient and WsHttpClient in a safe way using either, catch and Raise DSL. Any feedback is appreciated.

Which HttpClient are you using? Typically you need to call some finalisers after you're done working with them. I often use ResourceScope for this.

You can still combine it with Either as well. Here I am doing so for a Postgres driver. https://github.com/nomisRev/ktor-k8s-zero-downtime/blob/33739b6cb4db1661aa3c8f7b72[…]994/src/commonMain/kotlin/com/fortysevendegrees/env/postgres.kt

Here I consume the code combining either with resourceScope.

Thanks for the quick feedback. I'm using Jetty. Yes I had ResourceScope and SuspendApp in mind as well, I thought to apply that later but I may need to already think about how to structure that in a dependent way. Your examples look very nice, will try to base it on that.

My pleasure. Be sure to ask any question if you encounter anything weird, or have any doubts.
